I realized I hadn’t written anything since the day before my first exam. Yes, I am alive. The exam itself actually went pretty well. I do not expect any extraordinary grades or something, but I know I’ll pass. The last few days went by in a hurry, except for Monday. I’d bought too little food, and ended up spending the day being hungry since the stores were closed. I guess that’s pretty much it. xD I visited Wok Away again after my exam last Friday, as a treat for finishing. Good stuff, good stuff! And I just love their concept. It is a bit sad that I won’t be able to visit them every now and then, now that I’m moving back to Oslo though. They’ve got good food.

Exam Papers

Yes! I’ll be moving back to Oslo (just in case I haven’t mentioned it around 1000 times already). In fact, I’ll be moving back in less than TWO WEEKS! Rejoice! God, I’m exited. But at the same time, a little sad. There’s still a bunch of stuff I could have done here in Trondheim. And it is a really pretty city. However, it’s not like I’m leaving for good. I still have family up here, and I’ll still be able to visit Trondheim every now and then. I’m not dead yet or something. Two years of my life have been spent here, but it doesn’t really feel like it. And I’m kind of nervous about breaking off my studies, and then start again at the University of Oslo. I think I’ll manage somehow though.

The next few days will be spent packing, sewing costumes, and preparing for my HIST1110 exam; Ancient History. I still need to finish my friend’s Someya Mako costume, and get started on my own Takei Hisa (both from -Saki-). We’ll be bringing awesome, sparkling mahjong to Desucon, so watch out! Well, not really, but at least we’ll bring mahjong. To play. If we have the time. Probably not. But maybe before Desucon! They are -Saki- costumes, after all. And oh god, packing. I’m not looking forward to it. So much! And I’ve recently gotten my hands on some more merchandise too…

Not to mention the mountain of books I have aquired, and the 30 issues of COSMODE Magazine resting peacefully at my desk. And the vacum cleaner. And my 10 litre casserole. And my new shelf. And my TV / computer screen. And the bench. Oh dear… I really hope we’ll manage to bring all of it back.

I’ll go back to playing some Pokémon SoulSilver and watching the Eurovision semi-finals now. n_n

Rather tiring having a blood clot. Loads of doctor visits and too little time for blogging. >.< The blood values are stabilizing at a good level right now though, so finally I might be able to escape for a while. Now, on to business!

As I’ve previously mentioned, January 29th was my birthday, and I got lots of precious gifts from everyone. Loved the one from my boyfriend though. A very funny book, a Japanese cookbook (it tells how to make home made noodles and dango and such!), and another little thingie I won’t say what is. But it was adorable. <3 I paid a bit myself for a new phone, and my mother payed the other half for my birthday gift. Other things include…

  • A lot of money, which are, by now, spent on food, medicines, rquired books listed on our pensum for this year’s courses, a few figures and some stuff.
  • Some PC-related stuff from my brother. I have yet to see what it really is.
  • Cups and mugs from my friends. They heard about my cups being broken all the time by my fellow dorm members, and bought me a few, as well as some chocolate.

Too darn cute. >.< There’s been a couple of sightings of this nendoroid by GoodSmile already, but during a recent entry at Mika-tan’s blog, a few more were leaked. Head over there for pictures of more parts, facial expressions, etc. :3

The Megurine Luka Nendoroid will be released in Januray 2010, retailing for 3,500 yen. Pre-orders are supposed to be up at several sites now too, so just stop by your favorite figure retailer to check.

This particular figma was spottet at Tokyo International Anime Fair 2009. My jaw literarily dropped when I first saw this. IT IS SIGNUM! Yes, I am a Nanoha fangirl. xD

Figma: Signum

Signum will be released in June. As for the retail prize, I have no clue as of yet. I’ll update when I find out. :3 The picture is taken from Mikatan’s GSC blog.

Oh, Max Factory… Why do you have to announce so darn many good figmas when I have no money? *sighs* There’s two that I really, really want to get my hands on now besides from rather old ones such as Tsuruya-san and Yuki from the Haruhi-series, as well as the Lucky Star bunch.

Kagamiku

First up is Hiiragi Kagami, cosplaying as Hatsune Miku from the Vocaloid series. I adore this one, mainly because I’m a huge fan of both characters, as well as the OVA where Kagamiku appears. Kagamiku will be released in April, retailing at 2,500 yen.

Suzumiya Haruhi Summer Clothes Version

Next is yet another Haruhi figma. This one is called the Summer Clothes version. What I really like about this one is the new hairstyle included (the ponytail). This one will also be released in April, for the same price as Kagamiku: 2,500 yen.

Top part of shelf

Tada~! This is actually the top part of one of my shelves, filled with many interesting things. The part I want to draw your attention to however, is the top section to the right. Do you see the Fahrenheit stuff? My collection is coming along pretty nicely these days, and I am now up to date on all their albums exept their Japanese singles, which I don’t intend to buy anyway. I guess I prefer them singing in Chinese, I think their Japanese sounds a bit silly. xD Personal opinion, I guess. And for those who want to see the rest of my room in all it’s glory, pictures are coming up later this weekend. I guess we’ll have a grand tour then. :3

The Figma version of Yagami Hayate from Mahou Shoujo Lyrical Nanoha StrikerS has been comfirmed officially by Max Factory’s Figma website and blog. This figure looks incredible good to me, even for a figma. I adore figma’s. I think they’re much more fun than normal figures, since they are moveable.

This figma will be released in January 2009 for the price of 2,800 yen. I think I might heavily consider to get this one, but rumours has it Fahrenheit’s third album will be released sometime around December too. I think I’ll have to get my priorities straight. xD

Hvis man har vært heldig, har man på Wonder Festival 2008 Summer kunne fått tak i denne figuren fra Max Factory. Etter at de hadde en special edition Figma.BP der Lelouch Lamperouge fra serien Code Geass var representert, bestemte de seg altså for å lage en av Kururugi Suzaku også.

Kanskje ikke så veldig nytt, men allikevel utrolig søtt! Siden vekkerklokka mi gikk rett vest under forrige tordenvær, har jeg lenge vært på utkikk etter en ny en. En simpel klokkeradio eller noe var det jeg egentlig hadde i tankene. For ca. 1 uke siden begynte jeg å se Gundam SEED og falt pladask for den lille elektroniske kompanjongen kalt Haro. Da jeg i tillegg fant ut at det finnes ekte elektroniske Haro som kan fungere som vekkerklokke, var det ikke lenger noen tvil. En slik skal jeg ha! Og slik gikk det til at en oransje Haro er bestilt fra Japan.
